A Furniture Sale Backed With the
Right Goods and Enough of Them
To anybody coming in here tomorrow there is nothing to in
dicate that'during the past two weeks we sold more furniture than
any store has ever sold in the same space of time.
But there is everything to indicate that we are prepared to
meet any reasonable demand that can be made upon these stocks
during the time which the Sale has still to run.
To sell so much and still to have so much sounds like a con
tradiction, but here it is a fact, and it is one of the distinguishing
marks of every Wanamaker Sale.
As a supply source the Sale is a good spring well that never
runs dry; for as fast as goods are drawn from it fresh goods flow
into it.
Ever since this Sale was two or three days old, we have been
bringing in reserve supplies and we still have a good deal of fur
niture to call upon for tho needs of every one of the days that
remain.
The significance of the Sale to you, if you have yet to buy
your furniture, is that the goods are here. They are as tine as are
made in the country and thewhole unequaled collection from the
merest little foot-stool to the most palatial suit is offered at a clear
unequivocal deduction of 3ol-:j per cent, the only exceptions
being certain lots at a deduction of 30 per cent.
Considering the kind and quantity of furniture involved, the
general market condition and-the needs of the people, the offering
of the whole Wanamaker stocks on such a basis has proven and
is every day proving itself to be exactly what we wished it to be
and what we worked to make it- the most helpful and advan
tageous home-furnishing event ever known.
Now for
Mattresses and
Such
No :-. the time for people vim
m-ed mal tresses, pillows, holsu-i-or
bed'-prings to buy them iioh
when all our stocks of tlu-e
goods are being offered at sub
stantial savings in tho Februurv
Sale.

bidding, and this is the- Sale tint
